Great for your health muffin: Berry and yogurt muffins

I really have no reason at all when I bake this muffin, ^ ^, well sometimes life can be like that, we don't need the reason to do something.

All I want is to bake something, for me baking is therapeutic. When I feel down or sometime only bored (haha), all I have to do is go to the kitchen, mix something up and baking it.
But I think it's great to have a hobby like this, haha, because it's not only that you feel better when you making it but when the people you love eating it, you will feel a lot better.
This time, it's almost 8pm. when I start to baking it, after making bread for my dad, I feel bored (well, I make the same recipe again and again) so, I still want to do something more.
Then recipe came into my eyes, well all the ingredients are my kitchen stable (and I think most of you have these at home too). This is the muffin that I think it's great for the people who concern about their health, the vegetable oil is used instead of the melted butter (this time I use rice barn oil, which my friend recommend, it has less smell than other kind of oil), the yogurt, oats and berries are great for your health too.


So, from the reason (that is not a good reason, haha) that I was bored, I got a good muffins to serve my family ^ ^, and a great feeling when I  taste this delicious muffin.
If you feel bored or only want to have a great snack (or you can serve it as a breakfast), just try this recipe. You will see that it's easy to make yourself feel better by baking and other people to be happy when you serve them this delicious muffin too.


Note: I use small (5cm) Japanese muffin tins, but if you use standard muffin tin you will get 8 pieces.
